Cowes Railway Station took pride in being the “prettiest station on the Garden Isle”.〔''Larry Watson'', quoted in Once upon a line (Vol 4) Britton,A: Oxford, OPC, 1994 ISBN 0-86093-513-2〕 Opened in 1862, the very first on the island as part of the inaugural “Cowes and Newport” railway it expanded to three platforms as the railway branched out towards Ryde in the years before the motor bus began to diminish trade.〔Bennett,A Southern Holiday Lines in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight: Cheltenham, Runpast 1994 ISBN 1-870754-31-X〕 In its time prosperous enough to have a WH Smiths bookstall, its latter years were considerably leaner as more and more people took their holidays abroad.〔Steaming Through the Isle Of Wight Hay,P: Midhurst,Middleton, 1988 ISBN 0-906520-56-8〕 The station has long since been demolished〔Gammell C.J "Southern Branch Lines": Oxford, OPC, 1997 ISBN 0-86093-537-X〕 and today the area is a supermarket and municipal car park.〔Pomeroy, C,A Isle Of Wight Railways, Then and Now: Oxford,Past & Present Publishing, 1993, ISBN 0-947971-62-9〕
